Straw yellow color. Aromas and flavors of fresh banana, vanilla pudding, lemon curd, and candied almonds and cashews with a velvety, dry medium body and a medium-to-long finish that exhibits overtones of candied lemon and bananas, angel food cake, coconut water, and honey suckle. Light, refreshing, and clean; like a distilled tropical island breeze.

Fresh cane juice rums are made with fresh sugar cane juice instead of molasses, but are not AOC or DO products, such as Martinique Rhum, Haitian Rhum or Cachaça. These are often of excellent quality with nutty, spicy flavors and a tangy finish and are perfect for cocktails or with the best examples, ideal as a sipping rum.
